5 Things to Know When Picking the Right Container for Storing Your Clothes

by | Jul 27, 2017 | Features

Storage is a fact of life for many of us. There just doesn’t seem to be enough space for all of the things we need, but don’t need right now. Packing a storage container well can mean the difference between damaged storage and safe storage. It all starts with the right container. Choosing the right type of container for your storage makes a big difference in how protected your items will be.

Key Takeaways:

  • If you’re storing your clothes for an extended period of time, you’ll want to make sure that they’re properly protected from moisture, insects, and direct light.
  • If you’re storing lots of different seasonal items in one area, color coordinating your containers by season or holiday can make life a lot easier.
  • If you’re storing your clothing in a dark area, you may elect to use clear containers with colored lids to still have the color coordination you desire, with the added benefit of knowing what items live in which container.
